captives become slaves in your cities and give you extra income per turn, but they also lower public order and can cause revolts if your slave pop becomes too high

Although I do like the feel of "being on the field," does commentary ever come into play, besides occasionally between batting/fielding opportunities? So far, my player is in AAA, so I know that there is no commentary in AA or AAA, but is there any commentary once you make the MLB roster? Again, I do enjoy the silence, but it just seems a touch TOO quiet!

I have been wondering this myself... is this a glitch or is there supposed to be no commentary when you're playing in RTTS? 

generally I'd be on your side OP in terms of  rolling my eyes at people complaining overzealously about EA, but on this one I think the complainers are right on the mark.  And seriously man... "game seems fine to me" ....  you'd have to be living in a cave to have missed hearing about all the server problems that kept many people from even playing the game at all for days, and that's not even getting into the actual gameplay problems.

I think Dishonoured really is a great game if you are VERY patient with it. Its one of those games where you can pretty much ignore 80% of the stuff there is to see and do and beat it, but it has some really rewarding moments if you take your time with it.

However, Im probably about halfway through, maybe a little more, in Absolution without having touched any of the Contracts stuff yet, and its so much more entertaining it isnt even a competition.

I understand some of the gripes people have and I agree that the disguise system could probably be tweaked a bit, but overall it works, the game has some great atmospheric moments and I defintiely get that total badass feeling a hitman game is supposed to give you. 

Also I feel like a lot of the complains people throw around could be solved if they picked a more appropriate difficulty setting for themselves. For all the love that people are giving Blood Money around here, it was SO brain-dead easy that despite being a great game, I never felt as immersed in it as I do Absolution. 

I hate to have to agree with someone who writes in all bold/caps, but that guy is right about a lot of what he said. Some of this stuff people are complaining about makes me feel like I've been playing a different game.

First of all, they have so many difficulty options that if one of your complaints is about difficulty, I really don't buy it. From what I understand you can even play with instinct off if you hate that mechanic so much, but like mr all-bold said above, its basically just a replacement for the map in previous installments that would also show you everything in a very unrealistic way. At least now you have to actually be in the same room to use your overpowered scouting techniques.

And for people complaining about how you can no longer stand right in front of a guard disguised as another guard without getting noticed.... WHY are you complaining about that? that was always a huge immersion-killer for me, getting dressed up as a huge buff bald chef with a barcode tatoo on my neck, and somehow all the other potbellied Italian chefs in the level act like they've known me for years? Dumb. Yes, tthere does seem to be more emphasis on sneaking now than on using disguises, but both are still completely viable options.

And finally I'm really not seeing the linear levels thing either, other than a few obvious exceptions like the Run for your Life level which are supposed to be linear. And I actually thought that level was a fun change of pace anyway.

In year two of my My Player career with the Suns. We weren't so good in year one and every single one of my teammates went down overall, with some guys showing a -9 or -10. 

Now in year two we are 9-8 to start out but every single guy on the team is still at least -1 overall rating and some are still -10. Team chemistry is like 88 and we are overperforming... why is everoyne going down? 

the game does start a little slow but like someone earlier said i really enjoyed the build up, and I also have to agree that posting your opinion about a game to the public when you've played like one tenth of the game is kind of odd.

I'll take the Twolves if they are still available, and a fantasy team. GT = td dorner

i went back and forth as a starter/sixth man for a few games before securing the spot, even while playing well consistently. Could just be that, depending on how long its been going on
